I prefer my great days to happen while I’m still alive

How has no one taken a shot at him yet? Genuinely surprised he hasn't been assassinated yet.

What is he talking about? !! Really! Doesn’t make any sense. Can his advisors write something descent for him just once!! Yes he is not intellectual neither he is an articulate, we all know, the whole world knows. Don’t make him speak again please.

If job market bounces back, he could still win in November. US needs jobs, otherwise it's chaos. Sleepy JoeBiden remains a weak candidate with foot in mouth

Trump 🤦‍♂️

And applause from me. MAGA2020 USA

If everyone was equal under the law, Trump and most of his cronies would have done time in jail. But it’s one law for the rich and another for the poor. So shut up Trump unless you plan to face charges for tax evasion, sexual assault, and fraud.

I’m pretty sure a “great day” for George would have been more like kicking back safe at home watching Netflix. Or, actually...anything other than being agonizingly asphyxiated on the pavement by a rogue cop while begging for air with his very last tearful breath. ICantBreathe

Guy's a walking dumpster fire

Deluded beyond belief

Insane.

Just wrong on every level 😔

Not by me or millions of Americans. Only on Guardian editorial board

And people support this subhuman Deary me

Imagine a timeline where our stable genius POtuS grew up watching Mister Rogers on TV...

My god this is so false. Trump sucks, but listen to the clip. Some days the news agencies are just as shitty as trump claims

surly, realDonaldTrump isn't that stupid, there must be a plan behind all this, but, just what is the plan

I'm no psychologist but I'm pretty sure that only a sociopath would ever, ever say anything like this.

Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent

How can George have a ‘great day’ ..... He’s dead And .... How can this be a great day for equality....he was killed by a white police officer. Bring on the men in the white coats because your President is Mad...... TrumpIsMad MenInWhiteCoats

Enabler cluster

No soul.

FakeNews ScumMedia

Fake news

Look at all of those middle aged, privileged white guys - why doesn't the media point this out ? is this not a part of the problem ?

he is taking the piss.

There's a reason why intellectual lightweights like Trump and Justin Trudeau need a script at all times. This.

Sociopath trump just doesn't know when to button it.

not impressed....

Not much surprises me about this guy but this is beyond belief

It would have been his greatest day if GeorgeFloyd was still breathing.

fake news media

the stupid comments aside, trump went a little heavy on his makeup, look how he compares to others in the pic... 🎃

Trump making such a disgusting claim makes me sick.

What is wrong with this guy.

FFS!

A dead cat?

He's 🦇💩🤪

He shd head back into his bunker

I keep hearing about Black lives Matter , yet I never heard a squeak from them or the self righteous crowd over this attack on a 15 year old black girl in March:

AH?

Honestly I worry about you come November

George Floyd died for the economy?

There is almost no possibility that this isn't a deliberate intent to enrage, so that the protests escalate and then he can play with his soldiers. This is all about playing to his base in election year.

Trump is such a seriously dangerous mentally unstable narcissist.What a ghastly thing to say.

wow, great point. points to trump, 10 whole points. brilliant man.

Yea because yall are lying about the context

Obsessed with martyrdom and sacrifice. Lived his life on the back of others.

It made me laugh... So does the fact millions of people are celebrating a man that had a criminal record as long as his arm and a violent one at that. You couldn’t make it up...

Clod.

Of course his ability to be 'looking down' is likely to be severely impaired by a distinct lack of mobility in his neck for some reason. November can't come soon enough.

A great day? This man will never experience a great day again because of sick, corrupt, racist, American police officers

Everyone is outside enjoying the sun and not even paying attention to liberal news media.

He is a damned FOOL

Devoid of empathy. Devoid of decency. Devoid of sanity.

What a sick thing to say.

Make no mistake neither politicians nor a President can change it. The real change comes from within people's hearts. How do you change people's hearts? Voting?

Is there any sane person who does not now believe that realDonaldTrump has some form of mental disability?

Fringe-right holding their noses pretending to care for the black community ONLY after realizing Trump's terrible poll numbers now totally desperate for votes.

Can’t have a great day if you’re a dead person. Not an opinion.

George Floyd death: Trump 'tries to divide us', says ex-Pentagon chief in stinging attackDonald Trump's former defence secretary, General Jim Mattis, has delivered a scathing assessment of the US president, accusing him of dividing the country and 'abusing' his position of authority Defence is what he must do. Nothing more, nothing less. Coz even I would defend myself from getting hurt by the police or anyone else Mattis was a board member of Theranos, perhaps the most fraud ridden company in the US. He saw nothing wrong. Obviously he has very bad judgment.
